Hi! I really dislike this song. Like, a lot.

I’d love to see this song at a show with you so you could get me a beer while this plays.

Would do so gladly. You could return the favour when Wishlist comes up.

Weirdest sign request ever.

Probably a bit better than "PLAY PARACHUTES SO I CAN GO HAVE A PISS" I guess.

Pearl Jam has yet to make a song better than this song since this song came out. So this will forever be known as the last top-tier Pearl Jam song. To me at least.

I hated this song when it first came out because I don't like the Beatles, but it's good now

not great but good

One of the best songs Pearl Jam has released in the last 20 years

I agree, it's top tier. And I was lucky enough to see it at the Vic show and it was fantastic live in a smaller setting. I saw it once in an arena and it didn't work as well.

DOTC is good. But its not better than parachutes. Parachutes is beautiful. :luv: I just love how it bounces along from part to part and the way the verses and chorus flow into each other...I love how it just lolls. And I like how it builds just a bit in the end.

I think I'd agree that DOTC is better, but parachutes is still beautiful

I didn't always love the Beatles but recently I listened to their entire discology and its just so impressive how much they grew in such a small amount of times. Its truly amazing. And really they were good on every album (the latter half are just all classics)

I never understand when people tell me they don't like The Beatles.

Really? all of it? there's nothing there for you at all as a fan of rock music?

I find it absurd

5 stars song, one of a few from avocado that aged well.
Unfortunatly, no live version ever did justice to the studio one. Rough mix pre record version was its best cause Mike's guitar was a louder level in the mix than it ended at the final mix.

Haven't heard a "great" live version of this one.

It's a deceptively tricky song musically
Vocally impossible unless your Eddie

I learned it on acoustic guitar and can never get through it without fucking it up

I think Dance of the Clairvoyants might have changed my mind on this finally.

I think this song is quite pleasant, but bland
